    Where Your Support Goes

    We are transparent about how we use donations. Here's what your contribution funds.

    Convenings

    Funding invitation-only dinners that bring 12 carefully chosen Australians into the same room to wrestle with a shared challenge.

    Research

    Commissioning and publishing accessible explainers on Australia's most pressing issues, rigorous but readable.

    Online Dialogues

    Keeping the Mindhive platform free for participants so that cost is never a barrier to contributing your voice.

    Independence

    Maintaining our independence from government, media, and commercial interests so our convening stays genuinely open.

    Why give

    Where your donation goes

    Since 2004, Eidos Institute has convened national dialogues across Australia, conversations that bring people who might not otherwise meet into the same room to talk through the questions that matter.

    Your donation supports the ongoing work of convening these national conversations, including the five National Dialogues in 2026. Your gift helps us:

    • Convene Australians across generations, sectors, and perspectives for respectful dialogue
    • Produce independent, non-partisan research and explainers
    • Keep participation accessible so cost is never a barrier to contributing your voice

    No gift is too small. No gift is too large. Here's what different levels of support make possible.
